I just want to live a peaceful life in DC world

Chapter 77 Gaining More Than Losing

Chapter 77 Gaining More Than Losing
After hearing Batman's words, Siwa frowned slightly.

"You're playing with words, Batman, don't think I don't know, you want to use me as a free bodyguard?"

Batman remained silent. He knew that Siwa was a person who paid great attention to honor. Generally speaking, as long as he promised others, he would not break his promise.

Sure enough, after hesitating for a moment, Shiwa sighed, and finally spoke slowly.

"Okay, but you have to promise me two conditions."

"First, after you fully recover, I will have a heart-to-heart battle with you—it doesn't matter whether you live or die, you understand."

Batman nodded lightly, he knew very well that Shiwa's life or death was not just a matter of casual talk, and a careless mistake might really lead to his death.

However, he dared to make this request at the risk of offending Xiwa, and he was already mentally prepared for it.

"Second, as I said, I won't be a free bodyguard—you mentioned that I would be paid three times as much."

"Huh? That's absolutely fine—is it cash like before?"

Batman was also a little surprised, because in his eyes, although Xiwa was a killer, he had always been a martial idiot and didn't care much about money.

Batman asked her to help him recover before, but it was only a symbolic reward. After all, if it wasn't for Siwa to let Batman heal his injuries and fight her, Batman would not have invited her no matter how much money he had. come over.

"No, just transfer the newly increased reward."

The corner of Xiwa's mouth raised, showing an elusive and mysterious smile, and the original majestic and stern face was a little more charming.

"I had a small deal with someone before and it was sort of saving some money for milk powder for an unborn child."

At the same time, in front of the abandoned warehouse that was used as the base,
"Ha chirp!"

Jacques suddenly felt an inexplicable chill, shrank his body and looked around vigilantly.

Zas, then David Kane, and finally Ms. Siva, tonight Jacques has fought against characters of all levels of fighting skills in the DC world.

"Did you catch a cold? Come and have a hot drink. Walker was only wearing a bathrobe when he drove you back."

"Thank you, Barbara, my nerves are a little too sensitive recently."

Jacques took the steaming coffee from Barbara, and after taking a sip, his brain became much clearer under the effect of caffeine.

"How are they, Cassandra and Caroline?"

"Slept in the same state as before, but other than that there was no life-threatening. So what happened, Joaquin? Now the GCPD is a mess. It was still dealing with Zas's case, but suddenly I heard that something happened at the Iceberg Club."

Jacques hesitated for a moment, thinking it was better not to hide it from Barbara.So he told Barbara what happened in detail. Of course, he didn't say anything about the "deal" between Shiva and him.

"The League of Assassins. And the Lazarus Project."

After Barbara finished listening, her face became serious.She pushed the glasses with jade-like fingers, and an intellectual and intelligent temperament emanated from her clear eyes.

"It seems that the League of Assassins will continue to attack you and Caroline. What are you going to do, Jacques?"

Jacques shrugged and said helplessly with a wry smile.

"What else can I do? To be honest, I just want to live a peaceful life, and I have no interest in this ghost plan. But if they continue to come and trouble me, I won't sit still."

Speaking of the last sentence, Jacques couldn't hide a trace of cold killing intent in his tone.Traveling to the present period of time, even if he was forced to, the number of people Jacques has killed with his own hands can no longer be counted on two hands, and he has more or less cultivated a hostility.

Barbara looked at Jacques with some concern, her cherry lips parted slightly, as if hesitating to speak.

Jacques noticed Barbara's expression, so he quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Barbara, I will still try to control myself and reduce killings—unless there are lunatics who don't have eyes and rush to die, then I'm not welcome to protect myself."

Barbara sighed, then nodded slightly.

"I also understand your difficulties. If you still abide by the principle of not killing under such circumstances, you will only put yourself and your companions in danger. Don't worry, Jacques. I will help you hide this matter——huh? "

Ding ding ding.

The crisp ringtone rang, and Barbara took out her mobile phone from her trouser pocket, and after taking a look, her eyes widened in surprise.

"What's the matter, Barbara?"

"This, this is a message from Batman. He said that according to the agreement, this month's sponsorship funds will be stopped."

ah? ! ! !

Jacques almost spilled the coffee from his hand, his first reaction was how did Batman know that he had killed himself.You must know that when David Kane died, only himself, Cassandra and Caroline were present——

No, it seems that there was indeed another person who might have seen this scene at the side.

"Calm down, Jacques, I will explain to Batman, it was your counterattack out of desperation?!"

Hearing Barbara's exclamation again, Jacques' heart suddenly rose to his throat.What happened again? Could it be that Batman also counted those self-destructing Assassin League killers on his head.He didn't intend to take this blame, after all, he didn't even get experience points.

"No—Jacques, just now there was an extra transfer to the account we organized. A total of [-] million US dollars! And the remark of the transfer said 'deposit for the transaction, and the child's upbringing funds'. Do you agree with this Got an idea?"

Jacques was stunned, he immediately knew why Batman knew he had killed David Kane, and he had already recalled what he heard in the hotel an hour ago in his mind.

"I only know so much about the Lazarus plan, and I have already told you everything, so our deal is officially concluded—"

"Wait! Wait, Ms. Shiva! I haven't promised you that... deal, besides, Cassandra is still young, and Caroline and I have only just met, how could it be possible—"

"It doesn't matter. Cassandra is 16 years old, and she will be 17 years old after her birthday. There are no problems in many countries; as for Caroline, feelings can be cultivated slowly, and she doesn't have a bad impression of you. .”

"I'm not talking about the question—"

call out!
Jacques suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and before he could react, Shiwa's hand had already touched his Adam's apple, and the cold killing intent penetrated his whole body, making him speechless.

"You'd better make it clear, Joaquin Zhou. I'm not asking for your opinion, and I don't intend to give you a chance to refuse."

Then, Sivana's slender fingers slid along Jacques' neck, all the way to his chin, and lifted it slightly.

"However, you still have the right to choose. If you are not interested in either of them, I will come back to you after I finish the task at hand. Just wait and be careful not to lose your life during this time."

Seeing Sivana's queen-like majestic expression, Jacques couldn't help but smile bitterly.

What's going on in this world, am I being molested for a big man?
